Print Screen at High Res

I am trying to include some Screenshots of a sharepoint application, within Flash, and am struggling to get decent screenshots.
Anyone discovered a way of getting 300dpi images?
The most effective suggestion so far is to take still photographs from a laptop connected to a 50" plasma screen which is hardly ideal.

You can't. The screen is 72dpi, so anything from it will be that res, or whatever the pixels allow. e.g. a 1280 x 1024 image at 72dpi will print at 300dpi at just over 10cm by 8cm, or at 600dpi at just over 5 x 4 cm etc.0

The best you can probably do is:
A normal print screen, paste it into Photoshop
Image -> Image Size, change 72 to 300 pixels/inch
Apply the Filter -> Sharpen -> Unsharp Mask filter at 100%
I just tried it and it didn't look bad at all.
Taking a photo will give you much worse results.0 -
